Episode notes
Separation Metrics Are Contextual
- Separation metrics can mislead after one game and tend to favor receivers who win vs. man coverage.
- Emeka Egbuka may excel finding zone soft spots despite lower separation scores.
Temper Agbuka Hype This Week
- Avoid immediately vaulting Emeka Egbuka to WR1 status despite hype and heavy Dynasty value.
- Treat him as a strong upside play this week but not an automatic top-tier start.
Ladd McConkey Is A DFS Target
- Play Ladd McConkey aggressively in DFS this week due to likely pass-heavy game scripts and his man-coverage upside.
- Expect heavy ownership on cheaper running backs, so use McConkey as a contrarian high-upside receiver play.
